First Screenshots From Raw Thrills’ Winter X Games SnoCross UPDATED

We have seen plenty of pictures of the cabinet but now we have a first look at the screenshots from the new Winter X Games Snocross arcade game. In the past it looked like this would just be touching an Arctic Thunder revival but after some information we heard from the recent EAS 2012 show in Germany and as you can tell by closely looking at these screenshots, I would say it’s a blend of Arctic Thunder and Super Bikes 2. Both games found their popularity on the market and we’ll soon see how this one performs as it makes its way out there. Raw Thrills already has the game on their website and it will be at the upcoming IAAPA 2012 show as well. The screenshots we have received are directly from the game although none featured the direct game view with the HUD. You get to choose from various racers, snowmobiles and locations that go from Colorado to China to Moscow to Antarctica among others. As we have also mentioned, this game lets you upload your scores to various social media websites by using your smartphone to scan a QR code; The shots themselves should be self-explanatory so without further adieu:

UPDATE: Raw Thrills has released a trailer for the game, first time we get to see it in action

I'm a lifelong fan of video games and I have been operating my own arcade, The Game Grid Arcade in West Valley City, Utah for the past six years. I joined Arcade Heroes in 2007 and took ownership of the site in 2010.

this looks to be yet another winner from rawthrills but I do wonder if they would consider making a smash TV sequal of some sort like what namco did with pacman battle royale and taito with darias BAC, but I guess it would have to be altered in someway which I don’t think would be too hard to do, they could even joke about the namco change e.g. Smash or something or other” or “smash and what was it again” LOL like the name change the producers did with aqua teen hunger force and now it’s called “aqua something you know whatever”
